Amen man! Just because we may have differing opinions than you does not mean we can't think for ourselves. Ridiculous.

I guess I'm one of the few who is unimpressed.


First off the graphics are awesome and the new animations are great. But there is way too much bumping into each other tackles. Almost no wrapping guys up. And when they do seem to wrap guys up they roll right off them when they go down.

Its not a big deal but I'm tired of guys hitting like bumper cars. Oh and all the gang tackling others mentioned.

Oh well, I'm still very excited for this years game.

I thought the point of forums was to have discussions

Definitely > Madden 08 but still< tackle alley. I'll be impressed when Tiburon shows gang tackles.

That's a skewed statement. While it's clearly improved, it's not a 1 yr improvement. It's the latest tweak on an engine they've been tweaking since this generation began.
Tiburon should take a page from EA Canada and actuallt rebuild something. When NBA Live failed EA Canada skipped the PS3 version and started from near scratch. NHL 07 was the product of skipping the 06 season and franchise is now the best representation of its respective sport.

I'll agree about NHL, but you forgot how Fifa has grown leaps and bounds,too. Now NBA Live, I'm still not feeling it. But EA Canada is definitely on the ball! And they have Fight Night now as well, I can't wait to see how they bring that to the next level.......

If Madden made the an improvement like FIFA, I would be very impressed. It's not as bad as live, just right there in mediocrity.
